Palmyra: Building Fair and Traceable Supply Chains on Cardano

In this episode, we speak with Sam Lambert and Theodore Morisis, the founders of Palmyra, a Cardano-based platform bringing transparency and fair access to global commodity markets. They explain how Palmyra helps farmers capture verifiable supply-chain data, meet regulations like EUDR, and connect directly with buyers through its traceability tools, B2B marketplace, and consumer storefront. The discussion also highlights lessons from their Zambian pilot, offline-first design for low-connectivity regions, and why Cardano’s security and reliability provide a strong foundation for mission-critical trade infrastructure.

Reef Data Pays You for What's Already Yours

Join us as we speak with Jürgen Kleeberger, Co-Founder, and Robin Hellmann, Business Development Lead, at Reef Data, a Hamburg-based data cooperative built on Cardano. They explain how everyday people can reclaim their Amazon, Google, and retail data, understand what it's really worth, and get paid when companies buy it, all verified on-chain instead of taken on trust. From dismantling "tech feudalism" to giving enterprises access to ethically sourced, consent-based data, it's a compelling look at what happens when Cardano makes sure people finally get paid for what's already theirs.
